Don't worry about it. Just means they'll be fresher later in the year when it gets serious.


But will we have enough wins in the bank to benefit?


That's the big question isn't it SC?

Only an opinion of course, but I think we will.

We have enough of a core now that's been around long enough to know that there's no point busting
a gut, (or anything else), in the pre-season. I think, perhaps with one or two anomalies, we'll steam roller
the bottom ten, (and that includes Richmond). We know we're good enough to "push" the top 2-3 teams, but
I think we're ready to start beating them .... and that's what makes this year particularly interesting.

The guy I'm looking forward to watching is Bower. IMO he is very underated and, given good health, is going
to be huge for us this year.

As an aside, there's a Richmond guy at work who's been at me all morning ... "0-5 ... 0-5" he's singing away.
Chirp away little bird I'm thinking. Ten sunny days left for you. :smile:


Weren't the Cats around that in the real season when they won the fisrt one ?

None; everyone's improved; membership is up; new facilities are great.

I must admit I am getting a little nervous about the Richmond game,we are going into a game undermanned ,had we our best 22 we would kill them,but no
Warnock,Laidler,Duigan,Walker and Jamieson its a worry,our midfield will have to kill theirs,anybody else getting a bit nervous

should have cover in the ruck and half back flanker types should be adequate with our intensive recruitment in that area.

Funnily enough of the 5 players missing; Duigan HBF, Laidler HBF/3rd tall, Warnock Ruck, Walker ex HBF, and Jamo.

Are you going to draft a plan as to how the Club can prevent this? I'd like to see a dot point summary of what needs to be done. Try to avoid critizing the Club if you can.

I vote for a complete independant review.
If you told them to have one what do you think is their answer??

Want a fifty fifty, or call a friend???

They actually DO NOT believe they need to be reviewed by an independant body.

They have their "own internal review"...

Laughable!!
